PRESCHOOLER's Inquiry about Food Choices




As part of the Preschooler's wonderings about CHOICES, they did a survey to find out DSKI Grade 1-6 student's food choices.

 

They worked with a partner and and wrote tally marks to represent each count.

 

Then, they filled in the bar graph to visually represent and compare things between the food groups. 
Note: Might not be the actual numbers but for preschooler's survey purpose only.

We put together the results and they found out that....
  • A lot of DSKI students like fruits
  • Students like dairy because some are sweet
  • The least favourite food group is vegetables
  • No one in grade 3 likes vegetables

To gain a deeper understanding on the importance of the different food groups, they also played a game "What's on my Plate?. This activity helped them understand what a balanced and healthy meal looks like. 

 

Finally, the preschoolers were given the task to decide and choose their own healthy and balanced meal by filling in their own "What's on my Plate" chart.

 

 

 

 


It would be great if they will prepare the meal and try it out with the whole family at home! 

Finally, this month Preschooler's hosted the School Assembly and here is their video connected to our Unit on Choices. Enjoy!!

Night of the Student Led Conference

Preschoolers practice for their upcoming Student Led Conference (SLC) by engaging in mock sessions with peers and teachers. These practices help the students build confidence as they learn to talk about their artwork, classroom routines, and personal growth.  Using the checklist prompted by visuals like portfolios and photo displays, preschoolers explain their learning journey in simple, meaningful ways. Practicing ahead of the actual conference allows them to feel prepared and proud to share with their families.  It fosters communication skills, independence, and a strong sense of ownership over their learning — all foundational for future academic and social success. During the actual Student Led Conference, preschoolers experienced a range of emotions. Some felt nervous facing their parents, while others were visibly tired or overwhelmed by the attention.  A few needed gentle support to stay engaged. On the other hand, many confidently shared their work, explained clas...

Field Trip

FIELD TRIP Children who experience a holistic development during their younger school years grow up to become global citizens.  Taking the students out of the classroom  is important because it provides a balance between indoor and outdoor activities. It prepares them for what it is like in the real world.  As part of our unit on How The World Works which focuses on the science of living things, the preschoolers went out on a field trip to Rokkosan Pasture. In here, the students were immersed and had access to a different environment,  the farm habitat together with the animals who live there.  They experienced interactive learning by feeding and getting up close with these friendly and hungry goats. They observed how the animals shared space and played inside their homes. They were able to make connections on how they, as preschoolers socially interact with one another inside the classroom.   The parents who joined the trip also became the teachers a...
